Skip Intro

Guillermo del Toro joins the show to talk about his latest film, Guillermo del Toro's Pinocchio. Brought to life using classic stop-motion techniques, it's a bold reimagining of Carlo Collodi’s classic fairytale.

Del Toro shares why he was deeply impacted by the story of Pinocchio as a child, describes the incredible artistry and scope of work that went into bringing the film to life, and digs into the fascinating role that Catholicism plays throughout the story. 

He also explains how loving monsters as a child taught him to embrace his imperfections, reflects on his relationship with Alejandro González Iñárritu and Alfonso Cuarón, and opens up about the healing experience of his 2018 Oscar night.
